I wondered who the actor playing Papa Legba was because he seemed sort of familiar. I looked him up while I was watching, and it's Cedric Daniels from The Wire! *Ahem* I think you mean Phillip Broyles. /Fringe geek |

I'm going to need a bonus season of just Myrtle Snow being fabulous.  Those youngsters are laughable novices compared to Madams Lange, Basset, Bates, and Conroy. Julia Roberts' niece is the worst offender. She looks like a 10 year playing dress up, and saying all the naughty words she heard older girls say. And Zoe is just plain boring. |

There's probably no better way to show you love someone than to chop their enemies up with an axe. That's some beyond-Hallmark shit right there.

And then he went and said 'I love ya more than Jazz, Baby!' Sigh! So romantic as they were dancing through the blood of their enemies! In other news, as I suspected, 8 hours of Roots, Odetta and Selma footage did NOTHING for LaLaurie. It would be lovely to think her heart was finally moved... but her heart wasn't attached to her head at the time. I guess once her head got sewn back on the old racism and bloodlust went pumping back into her brain. I was hoping for that poor gardener guy (James?) a spark of humanity would creep back in before she went for his toes. And giving that up I then hoped he'd have the presence of mind to boot her in the face and maybe her head woulda popped off again. But too bad for Mr. Gardener Guy. Now he's trapped forever with Spaulding and his dolls. Not that that's the worst thing since Spaulding is pretty darned awesome. (And hey... Tea parties!) I was slightly worried for the baby until he said he finally had his own 'LIVING' doll- which means he won't try to kill her anytime soon (On this show, you never can tell!) I'll go ahead and call it that the baby is the next Supreme! And she's so darned powerful she's been sucking the life out of Fiona since she was in utero! It's also her presence in the house that is making all the other witches suddenly get super powerful. That's her plan. To make Fiona suspicious of them all and kill the rest of them off while leaving her alone. Smart!Baby!Supreme (And she already totally has Spaulding on her side!) I figured Queenie would pop up again. Though where is Misty now?!?!? Come back, Misty! Come back! (I guess the mausaleum takes time to tunnel out of) Poor Delia... or at least poor Delia's eyeballs. Hopefully she'll actually get 'the sight' back since it would suck to be her if she didn't. I hope LaLaurie doesn't bury Marie too deep. She needs to come back soon and guzzle down more Diet Sprite before dancing in the blood of her enemies with Fiona and her Axeman! |

I started to get squicked out by Spalding when he went for the baby. With him, you never know, but I was concerned about a child molestation scene.
That came to my mind before I entertained the possibility that he'd kill the baby. I would have been creeped out if he had insinuated anything about molesting a baby. I can handle all sorts of disgusting things, but a subplot about that? No way.
Thankfully it didn't happen, but he creeps me out more than most of them do.
Myrtle is wonderful. I feel bad for Delia. I look forward to Misty's return.

I just now got to watch this. I had to watch more scenes than usual through my fingers this week! -- the chicken beheading, the toe clipping, the eye gouging. Gah!
The Benadryl subplot was hilarious. You can't kill her. She's immortal. I just wanted her out of my hair for awhile. You seemed the most likely candidate. Bwah!
I feel like we're going to get thrown a curveball with this whole Supreme thing. I somehow suspect that there is no one supreme and that all the girls working together will be the undoing of Fiona.

I started to get squicked out by Spalding when he went for the baby. With him, you never know, but I was concerned about a child molestation scene. I would love to think that that is a line this show would never cross... But seriously, with this show it's really hard to tell. (I mean, what the heck does Papa Rob Zombie do with all them babies!!?!?!?) I feel though that Spaulding's only desire for the baby is someone to dress up pretty and have tea parties with. Yep. That's what I'll tell myself in order to sleep soundly at night! I'm not squeamish at all, but I'll cop to watching the toe snipping scene through my fingers. I really wanted the guy to kick her in the face and for her head to pop off. But even with my eyes covered I could hear that that isn't what happened. But yeah, I wanted him to knock her head off... So apparently I'm ok with decapitation over toe snipping. Who knew! This Supreme thing- I am starting to think there will be some twist where it takes all the witches uniting to make the Supreme (I.e. All their powers harnessed together like the Ghostbusters crossing their streams) But I still think it would be awesome if: - It's the baby who is the Supreme. - It's not so dead Kalie(?) who is the Supreme (The woman Hank killed who hasn't been mentioned since... But could still be the Supreme.) - It's Myrtle who's the Supreme. - It's STEVIE NICKS who is the Supreme! - Or heck, wild horse candidate: It's Diana Ross who is the Supreme!! - Or at least Honey Boo Boo who is the Ultimate Grand Supreme. - OR since Frankensteining folks has been a recurring theme. The witches won't so much cross the streams of their powers, but they'll each donate a body part to a newly sewn witch who will then be the Supreme. Yeah. And this person who will wind up with Zoe's head will totally date Kyle forever. |

And this person who will wind up with Zoe's head will totally date Kyle forever. I sincerely hope that Spalding wants the baby as his "live doll." Not that that is a great choice, but it's a slightly more savory option than other thing we've mentioned. I'd really like to see the baby returned to its parents. I can watch movies like Saw and Hostel without closing my eyes or looking through my fingers. I remember reading that Freddy Krueger was originally going to be written as a child molester, but they altered that to child killer. Not that that is a better choice, but there's something extra gruesome about child molestation whether the child is kept alive or murdered. I hope that doesn't sound weird, but I'm trying to make some semblance of sense here. On a more positive note, I would DIE if Stevie Nicks ends up being the Supreme. I would give everything I own to Ryan Murphy for using that twist ending. |

Forgot to add that Kathy Bates was totally channeling Annie Wilkes in that toe scene. I kept flashing back to the hobbling incident in Misery, which I also watched between my fingers the first time that I saw it! I'm also wondering if Delia and the girls all working together might destroy themselves in the process of defeating Fiona. When Stevie starts to sing "Stand Back," we'll know it's ON!  Best one yet! |
